A scream escaped my lips as the Inspector’s hand tightened around my Dad’s neck. I flung myself upon him and tried to pry his hands off. It mildly registered in my head that my Dad wasn’t fighting back. I could hear him trying to say something as the Inspector punched and hit him.1088Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftMaUI3IzN

“Sir! What in the world are you doing?” Someone pushed me away roughly and pulled the Inspector away from my Dad. My mind was so confused that it took me a while to recognize the person who intervened. It was Uncle Sunder. He was assisting the Inspector in the investigation. He was also a dear friend of my Dad.1088Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguTZ8GyffI

“What happened?” He asked Dad.1088Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdebyAkNwm

“The Inspector attacked him out of the blue.” I exclaimed. “He…He…He was trying to strangle…”1088Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRt9Dj35jE

The Inspector did not look any less angry. But he seemed to realize the gravity of what he had done. He mumbled something like an apology to Dad and walked away.1088Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymkSEhG7m0

“It was thoughtless of him.” Dad said. He stroked his neck. I could see the angry red marks of the Inspector’s fingers. Why? Why was he letting it go? Why didn’t he want the Inspector punished?1088Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLweIDGFwb
Uncle Sunder, on the other hand, was not at all surprised by Dad’s decision.1088Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wbD5R5gJa

“If you say so.” He nodded curtly and said.1088Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYenxgeOAm

The voice, calm and cool, spoke in my head. “Poor Ram…”1088Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFeQXjCJTz

Uncle Sunder left soon after. The spectators left too as the show was over. As Dad lead me to my class, deaf to the million questions that I threw at him, the rational part of my brain rushed to an unpleasant conclusion.1088Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcyCHbUQUU

Everything that the Inspector said was true. If it was so…Could I blame him for attacking Dad? I felt numb, helpless…Unable to even think about the things I heard.1088Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LRpeDK7zQ

“They’re all true, aren’t they? The things that the Inspector said…” I asked him, as we reached the class. “Is that why you are not answering my questions?”1088Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAoSwe8Dii

I hoped…I desperately hoped he would shout at me…say that not a word of those dreadful accusations was true. But…He…He just went away. Without a word…Without a single word.1088Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiLDOZlfaQ
I walked mechanically into the classroom. By the time I sat down on my bench, I was sobbing uncontrollably.1088Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTf8D4YW4Vp
